1999 Mercury Villager mileage: 101,580. Hey there guys. I own a 99' Villager. The "Check Engine Light" came on right around 100k. If I recall, I had a Geo Tracker that did the same and found out that it was a factory scheduled 100k maintenance thing. My guess is that this is the same thing. If so, I will take it on vacation and then take it in. If not, I will take my other vehicle.

The “check engine” light will “light” when there is a malfunction in the engine management system. The fault code is then stored in the computer. The computer must be scanned to retrieve these stored faults to pinpoint the malfunctioning component. Because the check engine light indicates something is wrong, a trip to you neighborhood automobile service center sooner rather than later is recommended.
